Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

LithuaniaThere are cockroaches in the hotel, running both in the bathroom and in the room. This shocked us. We reported it to the reception. The staff member claimed that this was the first time it had happened and that she had never seen them on the island at all. We do not believe this to be true. As compensation, we were offered an additional welcome drink. They also offered to change our room, but it did not meet our requirement for separate beds. As much as we regret it because of all the other positive aspects, we would not return to this hotel due to the cockroaches.
The hotel has excellent staff, a very good location with a wonderful view, exceptionally good breakfast, a complimentary minibar, and a welcome drink.

Location was great and it was fab having the terrace looking over the west to the sunset. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was plentiful.

United StatesThe grapes weren’t ripe for eating yet!!
A beautiful boutique hotel with every space individually crafted. Very cosy. Outdoor lower terrace provides a wonderful space with grape vine shade for breakfasting and evening drinks from the bar. Lounge/bar inside lovely too. Staff so very friendly and attentive with check-in including a guide to Ortigia sights, restaurants, beaches, etc. A welcome drink always helps too! Staff organized all of our taxis from train station, Catania airport, Siracusa archeological site, etc. Making logistics easier.

United StatesAbsolutely everything. The friendly and helpful staff, beautiful room and location, the delicious breakfast, I can go on and on. I have food allergies and they went out of their way to have the local bakery prepare stuff that was both dairy and soy free for my breakfast. This was the first and only place where I was able to indulge in a Sicilian treat.
